Default Milltek exhausts

I've found brand new milltek exhausts on eBay for like £331.00 delivered.

This just seems far too cheap and not sure whether to order one, here's the link.

Yeh I came across these at the weekend aswell as I am trying to get something quieter than my blitz, but thought exactly the same, they usually go for double this for a cat back.
Not sure, I've always been told if it seems to good to be true..... It usually is to good to be true.

£329.99 http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog...3a165894056d03 I have one on my STi and it sounds awe-some guys...best exhaust you can get IMO

The writing on the pipe looks suspect compared to what is on my two Milltek pipes IMO

Roadrunner are pretty reputable had few dealings with them. I doubt theyd be fake

Just give them a ring to clarify

That's the 2.75 inch bore, the 3 inch is dearer

I've got a 2.75 with the "special" back box. It's on a sti ppp with the prodrive cat. It has a nice meaty growl/burble to it and is nowhere near as loud/droney as the 3inch with 4.5inch jap cut back box that I had and grew to hate. I think the miltek is a great sounding and well made item but exhausts are an individual thing...

Roadrunner Motorsport are legit, I have bought two Milltek sports cats from them in the last 1.5 years.

I have had Blitz, HKS, Scoobysport, Hayward & Scott, Revolution and Jasma systems on my scoobs. The Revolution system for the classic was great and sounded great in 3". Not loud, chavvy and head-caving, but had a nice bark when booting it.

On the Black Blobeye peril that I currently have, that came with a 3" H&S Decat mated to a Blitz Nur Spec R system. Bloody awful for me in my senior years (36 ). Ripped that off and bought a brand new H&S 3" system to mate to the H&S 3" DP. Hated the noise from that too, sounded like a loud wasp on crack, quieter than the Blitz of course. That doesn't say much though as God taking a thunderous **** is quieter than the Blitz.

My first choice had actually been a Milltek system but they were on backorder and I didn't have time before getting the car worked on. Ordered a Full Milltek system and 3" decat DP from Keith at Revolution and it turned up in time for the second set of work to the car.

I am OVER THE MOON with the sound. Nice and pleasant at idle/cruise and a lovely bark when booting it. Usual top quality Milltek finish too.

It won't help but this is what I currently have Milltek-wise:

RS6 - Full Milltek system including Sports Cats
S3 - Full Milltek system with AmD Sports Cat
Cupra R - Full Milltek system including Sport Cat
Blobeyed Terror - Full Milltek 3" system including Decat

Quality speaks for itself guys .
